very good nomination. how about Jamil Kelly being a zero time college AA but turning into an Olympic Silver

Keith Gavin never won a HS state title yet won the Hodge.

i don't like most of the suggestions being offered. I mean, VRob had major accomplishments in HS and was obviously a talent. i gotta jump into a meeting but i'll get back on this topic. in short, i'd say state titles don't mean much. but for now Drew Foster and Stephen Buchanan come to mind.

if you want to get political that's fine. but do it on the NWT board.

this kinda crap adds nothing to discussion and you do it too often. keep it up and you can enjoy a vacation. consider this a warning.

Both Tech and N. Carolina are making a hard push.

citing something from a decade ago doesn't help your narrative that it's an epidemic. it's all abhorrent, of course. i just don't see any evidence that it's anything close to more prevalent in wrestling than in other sports.

Brooks-Zillmer and Green-OConnor were posted to the site in prematurely. they aren't happening.

he's been around a bit. wrestled in fargo the last couple years. most recently he went 4-2 at NE Regionals. both losses were to ranked guys. i think he's probably a long shot to place but he aint bad.

if anyone is interested, RAF is having a social with Ohio HS and college coaches. you're all welcome. details here https://realamericanfreestyle.com/raf-wrestling-camp-giveaway

would love to have any of you come. it's at 'TownHall' in Cleveland at 7pm on Wednesday. Izzy and I will be there with Lance Palmer, some of the other RAF brass and a bunch of HS and college coaches including Josh and Scott Moore.

There were 100 DI programs cut across all sports just in the last few months. Thankfully just one was wrestling.

as if that's the prevailing reason he shouldn't be mayor.

that's not an ad hominen, Confucius. it's germane to the argument. the ones expressing outrage are hypocritical/selective with it.

i get it. i certainly understand the distaste for that. i just don't think it's a big deal when someone tells you what their convictions are, even if i disagree with them. there are plenty of muslims who publicly say non-believers should be wiped out. there are plenty of atheists who roll their eyes at any notion of a god. idk, maybe it's just me, but it doesn't invoke outrage.

it's not ad hominen ffs. there's plenty of substance in there. you poptarts aren't thinking this through and want to be outraged. Brooks stated what the Christian beliefs are. Muslims state what Islamic beliefs are. if it's an atrocity, what do you say for yourselves when you scoff at the existence of any higher power? are you telling all muslims and christians they're full of sh!t? wow. what an affront! Muslims: "Muhammed is the true prophet!" Wokesters: "well, that's their belief" Christians: "Jesus is the one true prophet!" Wokesters: "that is an affront to muslims!" Wokesters: "All religion is contrived. simply hogwash" you haven't thought this all the way through, brainiacs. i can't believe you just offended believers of all faiths. how dare you.

most muslims would understand that b/c they say the exact same thing, just about Allah instead of God. from where i sit, it's white american atheists with coexist bumper stickers who are the ones with their panties a bunch over it.

i think the guys at WresteStat put a factor in their algo to piss off BigRedFan of intermat message boards

thanks for the update, Lucho

you guys have the same energy/hate for the many muslims that say, essentially, the same thing as Brooks but in reverse? the bottom line is that's what they believe. i find it funny that the same class of people that scream inclusion and acceptance vilify people for their words. and in this instance, selectively. did i like the comment? no. do i like when others subjugate my beliefs? no. but to each, their own. it harms me none.
